Clarion Blue Fototec:
SummaryRating: 4/5 ⭐
Pros: Perfect fit for Asian faces, highly adjustable, extremely lightweight.
Cons: Lens reflects your own eyes in certain lighting.
The Fit: Perfect for Low BridgesFinding sunglasses that fit an Asian face shape can be tough, but these are perfect. Because I have a lower nasal bridge, sunglasses usually slide down or sit directly on my cheeks. These stay exactly where they belong.
Customization: Highly Adjustable
The adjustable nose pads and ear arms are the best features. I was able to customize the frame to sit higher on my face. This completely prevents the bottom of the lenses from rubbing against my cheeks when I smile or talk.
Comfort: Barely There
These glasses are incredibly lightweight. You can wear them for hours during workouts, runs, or rides without feeling any pressure points or dynamic slipping.
The Lens: Clear but Reflective
The Fototec photochromic technology adapts well to changing light, but it has one drawback. I experience an annoying internal reflection where I can see the image of my own eyes inside the lens. This ghosting effect is likely because I adjusted the nose pads to sit high, creating a gap at the bottom that lets light leak in from behind.
VerdictIf you struggle to find sunglasses that clear your cheekbones, these are a lifesaver. Just be aware of the potential for back-reflection if you ride the nose pads high.
I am going to have to return this and get non-Fototec lense to avoid reflection.
